Gel Plate Printing & Collage Workshop: inspired by the art of Henri Matisse with Jennifer Penick

Monday, October 12 from 5 to 7 P.M.

In this workshop, Jennifer Wilkin Penick will lead participants through two accessible and engaging projects -- both inspired by the colorful art of Henri Matisse. In one project participants will create hand-cut stencils and use them to make layered monoprints, and in the second they will create colorful collages. Participants will leave with a series of colorful and unique monoprints and collages, with their favorite work matted and ready to frame. 

This single-session workshop will familiarize participants with gel plate printing techniques, designing and cutting stencils, and abstract collage.
